Article 1, Section 8, Clause 11 of the U.S. Constitution: "The CONGRESS shall have power...to declare war."

Dear World, Please do whatever you need to. Sincerely, Decent Americans

This aged like milk in the scorching desert sun.

We have been misled. We thought that in the USA we had a Senate and a House of Representatives which might be involved in initiating any act of war. Apparently not. Now what???

Germany, France and Britain condemned Iranian attacks on countries in the region, saying Iran must refrain from indiscriminate military strikes and resume negotiations

🧵 The Trump-Vance Administration has singularly launched a regime change war on Iran and deployed US military forces and assets by fiat without Congressional authorization. 1/6

How the US attack on Iran could shake oil prices

No it wasn’t. No it’s not. No we aren’t. No they aren’t. No it isn’t.

Jeff Bezos bought the Washington Post offering “financial runway." This month it gutted its newsroom—more than 300 layoffs. Whatever you think of legacy news, the hard data shows us that newspaper closures hurt Americans. Here's how: 🧵

This is one hell of an ugly thing. New rendering shows how Trump’s ballroom will dwarf the White House.

US attack in Iran poses bigger risk to energy market than Venezuela

Congress has essentially just been a distraction & media filler since 9-11. They no longer have any real power & are just sort of a welfare project for rich, untalented people who are too ugly to try for a career in TV, but come from the upper class, so they need some sort of pension plans...

Stupidity is repeating the same mistake and expecting a different outcome. Trump is turning all of America into Fifth Avenue and now the World.

Human lives are not collateral talking points. Speaking about casualties so casually, diminishes the real people. American service members, Iranian civilians, entire communities whose lives are at stake. War should never be treated lightly.

Apparently it's not true that they just let you do it. When Trump asked for oral sex a defiant 15 year old bit his penis, even a punch to her head did not bring compliance.

Day 1338 of #IansDailyPhotoChallenge and winter certainly isn't ready to lie down yet Blackthorn blossom was the best I could manage for you today 🤗 #inspiringnature #wildlife #naturephotography #MentalHealthMatters #365DaysWild

Short video clip of a stream in East Sooke near Anderson Cove. Got some nice images of this creek that I posted are couple of weeks ago. #lush #flowing #EastSooke #nature #vancouverisland #WestCoastBestCoast

Just 47.6% turnout in Gorton & Denton, despite all the publicity surrounding such a high profile by election. What makes over half of the electorate just hand over responsibility for selecting their MP to others? I bet they're the first to complain when there's a problem. I just don't understand it

Bombs hitting Jordon, Qatar all over the middle east is on fire. TRUMP did this.

Day 1339 of #IansDailyPhotoChallenge and a miserable, wet end to February Lucky I found this stunning cherry blossom then isn't it? 🤗❤️🌸🍒 #inspiringnature #wildlife #naturephotography #MentalHealthMatters #365DaysWild

👍Chief Judge Schiltz: ‘One way or another, ICE will comply with this court’s orders’ www.newsfromthestates.com/article/chie...

Can we deport ICE? Citizens seem to be fair game and I’m a firm believer of treat people the way you want to be treated. They showed us how they want to be treated, I think it’s only fair we oblige.

If Jeffrey Epstein was alive today, what part of Trump’s cabinet would he be a part of? 😏

If you do not bend the knee to this administration they immediately turn to retribution. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/02/...

Agreed. He’s not kidding. He’s means every damn word of it. He’s everything our Founders feared. We must recognize that he’s serious so we can defeat him.

I mean felons can’t even vote so why is one president? Make it make sense...

Some scary shit going down at the Pentagon with Hegseth

"forcing a terminally ill Republican lawmaker to spend his dying days in Congress to ensure the GOP doesn't lose its slim majority in the House—a grotesque move that shows just how anxious the Louisiana Republican is about being pushed back into the minority. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

“You can bring down the cost of your groceries if you start buying cheap foods you don’t like. Or eating whales and bears you find during the day!” RFK Jr can always be counted on to bring the stupidity.

Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.

Political theater from the vengeful racist right or corruption? apple.news/AABvuTL9nQde...

This is because the Pentagon and Trump don’t like Anthropic’s language preventing their tech from being used to surveil Americans or for autonomous weapons. Which means the Pentagon wants to use their tech to surveil Americans and build autonomous weapons apnews.com/article/anth...
